The Verizon store relocated from 2755 Fairfield Commons Blvd. near the Mall at Fairfield Commons to a building at 2460 N. Fairfield Road that previously housed and was built as an IHOP restaurant. That IHOP opened in October 2015 but shut down and was padlocked along with two other Miami Valley IHOP locations 18 months ago, in January 2019. It has sat vacant since.
A new IHOP franchise owner is rejuvenating one of those former IHOPs, in Springfield, and it also has opened a new restaurant on Miller Lane in Butler Twp. But the Beavercreek IHOP on North Fairfield has served its last pancake. Its signage is now being replaced by Verizon signage.

The new Verizon store is scheduled to open “on or about” July 21, according to a voicemail greeting on the store’s phone line.
The former Verizon location was demolished swiftly after the store closed, and will soon be the site of a new Raising Cane’s restaurant.
Plans call for a 3,100-square-foot Raising Cane’s to open later this year, perhaps in December, depending on weather and other factors, a Raising Cane’s spokesman said last week.
